This is a bit of a kluge, but what about switching geometry over to the
style Peter set up for locale differences? Instead of calling out
platform-by-platform expected files, we could arrange it so that
pg_regress will accept a match on-the-fly to either of two (or more,
but I think two will be enough now) geometry.out files. Essentially
we'd be saying that we don't really care whether specific platforms
show positive or negative zeroes in that test.
